South African mixed martial arts fighter Dricus du Plessis told how he trained with UFC middleweight champion New Zealander Israel Adesanya in Thailand.

Oh yeah, we trained in Thailand together. I think I was 19 years old at the time. He had quite a record in MMA already, back then. I was 3-0, I think? Yeah, I was 3-0 when we trained together. He said I beat him in the grappling exchanges. He’s 100 percent correct in that. But we did not do a single round of striking together. Not one.
